Assad's Re-emergence in Arab Politics.
TL;DR Summary
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was welcomed back to the Arab fold at an Arab summit in Saudi Arabia, after years of isolation due to his crackdown and war. The move is opposed by the US and other Western powers. Gulf states have tried to remain neutral in the Ukraine conflict despite Western pressure on Gulf oil producers to help isolate Russia. Syria's readmission to the Arab League is a strong signal that Assad's isolation of more than a decade is ending.
